Training
"What world?" Ye Siyu asked curiously. Twenty days had passed, and he had almost forgotten that he could learn about his next mission world in advance. "New Iron-Blooded Warrior," the Red Queen answered softly.
"Red Queen, gather information on the Iron-Blooded Warriors for me." Ye Siyu raised an eyebrow. He had seen New Iron-Blooded Warrior, and its plot was exceedingly dull and simple, but so much time had passed that he no longer remembered it.
Before long, the Red Queen had gathered all the information on New Iron-Blooded Warrior.
A mercenary was dropped onto an unknown planet under mysterious circumstances. Soon after he arrived, more people began falling from the sky one after another! He, seven Warriors, and a surgeon were suspicious of one another, yet their survival depended on fleeing together.
Along the way, they were repeatedly attacked by strange creatures and fought battle after battle to survive. Only then did they discover that they were prey on this alien planet, and that the ones hunting them so ruthlessly were the Iron-Blooded Warriors, as swift as the wind and unbeatable in battle!
They were enormous, could hunt using night vision, and could sniff out the location of their prey. No one in this vast hunting ground had anywhere to hide.
These soldiers and killers, all exceptionally skilled back on Earth, had to fight the Iron-Blooded Warriors in a perilous alien jungle. Their enemies could turn invisible, moved faster, and were equipped with more powerful shoulder-mounted plasma cannons and the ultimate flying falcon.
The movie's plot was dull and bland, consisting of one escape after another. The most valuable things were a spaceship and the Iron-Blooded Warriors' equipment. Aside from those, there was nothing worth Ye Siyu's attention.
"Master, I just consulted the Plane Space Encyclopedia. This mission world will involve multiple participants." While Ye Siyu was looking over the information on New Iron-Blooded Warrior, the Red Queen spoke again.
"A multiplayer mission?" Ye Siyu frowned slightly. He had only completed one mission, so he did not know much about how missions in Plane Space worked.
"That's right, a multiplayer mission..." The Red Queen immediately explained it to Ye Siyu.
Aside from missions with certain special conditions, Plane Space missions were broadly divided into four types: solo missions, multiplayer missions, group missions, and multiplayer group missions. Ye Siyu's first mission, Terror Infinity - Resident Evil, had been a solo mission.
The Chosen Ones could freely select any of these four mission types.
However, Plane Apprentices were newcomers among the Chosen Ones selected by Plane Space, so the types of mission worlds for their first few missions were fixed and could not be selected freely. The purpose was to familiarize the Chosen Ones with the types of mission worlds in Plane Space.
The first was a solo mission to familiarize the Chosen Ones with Plane Space, the second was a multiplayer mission in which the Chosen Ones competed, and the third was a group mission in which the Chosen Ones worked together to complete the mission. No one could change this. Only after completing these three missions of fixed types could they freely select mission types. As for the fourth type, multiplayer group missions, those chosen at the Plane Apprentice level could not undertake them.
The four mission types increased progressively in difficulty, from easiest to hardest, and their rewards increased accordingly.
"What a hassle. I'll have to make thorough preparations. Red Queen, do you have any suggestions?" Ye Siyu said, rubbing his smooth chin.
Ye Siyu's next mission was a multiplayer mission. The number of participants could range from as few as two in a small mission to tens of thousands in a war mission. The more participants there were, the greater the difficulty.
However, Ye Siyu currently knew only what kind of mission it was, not its specific details or the number of participants. He therefore had to prepare thoroughly to avoid being caught off guard.
"Based on the movie, the Iron-Blooded Warriors are incredibly strong. As long as they don't act stupid, one of them could easily take on ten opponents. So I suggest you redeem English Mastery, Master, then spend points on simulated intensive training." In response to Ye Siyu's question, the Red Queen presented her plan.
"Mm." Ye Siyu nodded at the Red Queen's suggestion.
It was just as the Red Queen had said. As long as an Iron-Blooded Warrior didn't lose its wits, its powerful physique and assortment of unusual weapons would let it easily deal with an entire fully armed force on its own. It would hardly be like the ones in the movie, stupid enough to fight humans hand-to-hand and get hacked to death with an axe-more like a beast driven by animal instincts than an intelligent being.
Having settled on his next course of action, Ye Siyu followed the Red Queen's advice and got started.
Although he did not know whether he would be joining the movie's protagonists when he entered New Iron-Blooded Warrior this time, he still needed to prepare. The most important issue was communication, so his first step was to spend 50 points on English Mastery.
Once he had redeemed it, Ye Siyu found that his English, which had previously been limited to "are you ok" and "how old are you," had improved dramatically. The many words that had known him when he did not know them suddenly became clear and simple.
"Red Queen, what should I do next?" Ye Siyu asked after redeeming English Mastery.
"Master, you can begin simulation training next. I suggest you first spend 2,000 points to unlock three functions: Basic Scene Simulation, Basic Character Simulation, and Basic Item Simulation," the Red Queen replied. At the same time, a screen of light appeared before Ye Siyu.
"What do those three functions do?"
"Basic Scene Simulation can simulate the various environments on Earth. Basic Character Simulation can simulate beings like the Iron-Blooded Warriors. As for Basic Item Simulation, it can simulate all kinds of firearms and ammunition. That way, you can train before you formally enter the mission world," the Red Queen explained.
"Mm, redeem them." After hearing the Red Queen's explanation, Ye Siyu nodded.
The case of T-virus Stock Solution he had put up for auction had ultimately sold for 3,000 points, giving him a total of 4,427 points when added to what he already had left.
Including English Mastery, the cost came to 2,050 points. Although it was a lot, Ye Siyu still had enough to pay, and it was worth the expense.
"The redemption is complete, Master. You can begin training now, but I suggest spending points on training time. No matter how long you train, only an instant will pass in the outside world. The points you have left are enough to let you train until you can easily deal with an Iron-Blooded Warrior." The Red Queen laid out her arrangements for Ye Siyu in an orderly manner.
Ye Siyu said nothing about the Red Queen's arrangements. As her master, he knew she would not do anything harmful to him, so he felt completely at ease as he began training for the next mission world.
